If pain for peace prepares

Emily Dickinson·1830–1886
Lines:12
If pain for peace preparesLo, what "Augustan" yearsOur feet await! If springs from winter rise,Can the AnemonesBe reckoned up? If night stands fast -- then noonTo gird us for the sun,What gaze! When from a thousand skiesOn our developed eyesNoons blaze!
